update CAN-2003-1023 fix to still make vfs symlinks relative, but with bounds checking

Summary

Midnight Commander is a visual shell much like a file manager, only

with many more features. It is a text mode application, but it also

includes mouse support if you are running GPM. Midnight Commander's

best features are its ability to FTP, view tar and zip files, and to

poke into RPMs for specific files.
